I saw both of them, but $80 was too much for the GH.  Anyone know whatprint the Blackmoor is, I was going to ask, but I was too lazy to do so last night.

Easy enough to tell a 1st from a 2nd by external appearances. That one should be a 1st. :)

You think $80 for that with 4 pages loose is too much?

Well, with intact pages, they've gone for over $100 IIRC.

A 1st print BM is a hole that I need to fill and I have been debating whether I should pop that or not. :)

I'm guessing it'll go for less than the BIN.  Tempting, though.   :D

:lol:

Now you're taking me on trust, Brian. :D

The brown-black printing offset on the front cover and cut to the margin of the black trim marker on the back cover are the distinguishing marks, btw... I'd better go find a 3rd print to ensure that doesn't revert but outwith that the only "problem" should be the possibility of a "1st" cover on a "2nd" textblock.

Scans required to demonstrate?

Well, I can't think of a better person to trust when it comes to this kind of stuff. :wink:  I am certainly hoping that you are right. :)

Brendon should be able to confirm on that, too. Thought he had a pretty good run of the various printings. ;)

1st print Blackmoors without rust on the staples are pretty scarce, btw. Think they pulled a dud batch for that one when they were trying to get them out for Christmas (ignore what it says 'bout September on the cover page).

Will send you over a copy if I'm not... ^^
